Hilma – the University Network for Women’s Studies is a cooperation project between eight women’s studies units in Finland.

Welcome to Hilma!

Hilma is a network for all women’s studies units in Finland, their undergraduate and graduate students, teachers and researchers, as well as administrators. Hilma is a window into women’s studies also for those outside the academia. Hilmas core values are quality and productivity.

Hilma arranges internet courses in Women’s Studies, provides information on events related to Women’s Studies, such as Ph.D. defences and conferences, lists new publications and provides links to the central www-teaching resources in Finland. Hilma also informs about research projects inside or related to Women’s Studies and about possibilities for postgraduate studies inside the field. Hilma’s resources are provided by the Ministry of Education.
